Abstract

Industrial automation customers, like any other customer, want higher quality products sooner at a convenient price, along with great after-sales service and support. Fortunately, virtual commissioning enables quality, time-to-market, and cost efficiency all to be greatly improved.

Virtual commissioning is a new approach for the design of automated machines that integrates all, or most of, the machine system elements, such as mechanics, electrics, sensors, actuators, robots, and the automation software from the very beginning of the design phase.

This enables companies to ensure the overall efficiency and quality of their machine’s hardware and software, minimize the risk of errors, and dramatically reduce commissioning time. The following article explains how this new approach to the design of automated machines can enable industrial automation OEMs and system integrators to achieve these business imperatives with the assistance of industrialPhysics simulation software.

Improving the performance of shaped charges and passive ballistic protections

CAE models evaluated using two commercial solvers

In this technical article, the authors discuss the development of CAE models for simulating the behavior of shaped charges, devices used in various industrial sectors, against two types of target – a monolithic steel target and a multi-layer steel-ceramic target – in order to better understand the physics of penetration.
